This year’s agenda was created by a seven-member advisory board led by Randy Crisorio, president and CEO of United Development Systems Inc.

“If I could label this years Summit, I would title it “Don’t Roll the Dice – Get to Vegas!” commented Crisorio, “The content is amazing: from learning the inside of the competitors’ reinsurance programs; to finding quality talent; to acquiring, selling or transitioning your business. Those are but three of the ‘New Look’ segments that are of great importance to all of us. Plus… we’ll be examining the practice of captive coercion because we need to get these guys out of our pockets, right? AND… Wednesday – secrets unfold in the morning session for Principals only. The bottom line for All Agents in our industry is that the GOLD will be waiting for you at Caesar’s Palace March 10-12, 2014.”
